Two weeks later this was the result. The thumb had completely re-grown including the entire nail like magic.Is this for real?

...Sorry, I'm struggling to comprehend this. Actual limb regeneration?

Yeah, occasionally people do regenerate bits of fingers entirely without prompting. This Matristem stuff sounds like snake oil to me, but it's worth a clinical trial. We can use the people marketing it as guinea pigs. :D

14 month year old still filled with stem cells. Fairly clean cut. You get the point, right?
